Belmont Stakes Weekend

So, we headed down to Long Island for the annual Belmont Stakes weekend. We had planned on going to the Bronx Zoo on Friday this year and were really excited about it, but the weather just did not want to cooperate. It was a downpour all day, so instead we found the Long Island Children's Museum. It ended up being a lot of fun. Very similar to the Strong Museum in Rochester, but different exhibits.

















On Saturday, the weather improved, and while a lot of the guys were at the races, my Aunt Maureen took us all to a local beach. The kids had lots of fun playing in the sand - the water was a little too cold for swimming, unfortunately.


Saturday night, my Aunt Judy and Uncle Al had a barbque/party for my cousin Julia's graduation from college. It was great seeing all my aunts, uncles and cousins who we don't get to see too often.
